    To whom is the blessing and to whom is the woe? The blessings mentioned in Luke 6 are usually misunderstood.

    1stBBC To whom is the blessing and to whom is the woe? Luke 6:20-26 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. "Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you shall be satisfied. "Blessed are you who weep now, for you shall ...read more

    Second in the series based on Max Lucado’s book 6 Hours one Friday. God worked miracles for Moses, Daniel, Shadrach, Meschach and Abendego, and he will do it for us if we learn to trust and obey.

    He’ll do it again Last week we discussed the three F’s the three storms that hit us. One of those was the Futility. Futility hits especially when we are weary. We stay up nights and instead of counting sheep, we count our debts, our tasks, maybe even our heartbreaks. We are weary, we are tired, ...read more

    This is a look at the 11th chapter of Job.

    Zophar is the third of Job’s friends to speak. Job has heard two points from his friends: man is sinful (Eliphaz), and God is just (Bildad). Zophar now finishes with the third point: God punishes sin and gives less than we really deserve. 1 Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said: 2 "Should ...read more

    The fourth sermon in the Lenten Series "The Signs of John." In this sermon we look at the fishing trip the disciples took after the resurrection and focus on how Peter’s reaction illustrates the change in his and Jesus’ relationship.

    Large Catch of Fish I. Introduction A. I’d like to start out this evening with a passage from another Gospel that recalls a similar incident between the disciples and Jesus B. Luke 5:1-8 On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the ...read more

    What does it mean when God (Jesus) sits?

    WHEN JESUS SITS As a father, I have had moments in the lives of my children that I was so overwhelmingly proud of them I did not know what to do or how to act.

    When life takes an unexpected turn, will we trust God?

    Intro. Last week we saw that Jacob’s life changed before Joseph was born. Joseph had been trained well by his father. Not the same could be said about the rest of the sons. Jacob had been very passive in the lives of Joseph’s older brothers, but apparently more involved in the life of Joseph. ...read more

Likewise, there is the story of the ...read more
